Overview

Located on the southern side of a hill overlooking the Provencal village of Cotignac, the Foyer of Sainte-Famille offers a privileged place of accommodation for those who go to the Sanctuary of ND de Grâces and Saint-Joseph.

The Sanctuary is known to have been the site of 2 apparitions of Mary in 1519 and one of Saint Joseph in 1660. They are at the origin of the pilgrimages organized today by the Brothers of Saint-John.

The Foyer of Sainte-Famille is located in a peaceful setting a few meters below the sanctuary. It consists of a main house and a few hermitages, a large dormitory, a large space for tents in summer, and an oratory. The accommodation is simple and the family cooking, the large swimming pool allows you to cool off during the summer heat.

The Foyer of Sainte-Famille welcomes you for retreats or pilgrimages, or simply for lunch during a family walk to the sanctuary of Cotignac.


Suggested donation applies for this vendor, which is to help the Foyer to run the guest house correctly.

The address was not adequate to find the facility via Google maps directions. Please tell guests the specific destination, something like Foyer de Familles, or something like that. We were late arriving because of this, but the very kind woman was still waiting for us. The monastery was so very peaceful and we would like to return for a longer stay. Our visit the next day to the local market (a surprise to us) and to Abbaye Thoronet were exceptional!
